(nice pic ole man)

Nitro and I did 4 decent fish from 6am til noon. Casted til 8am but the weeds were all brown from the weed killer- never seen anything look so bad. Busy lake, hot colors were- 2 fish on Foiled Silver Perch, Special Perch and Hot Perch. Great fishing, great opener. Solgrande, "Right Said Fred" and Cpt Ed Cragg got at least 3 each also, fish were biting very well and Baker Baits were hot for us. Saw a good amount of fish caught today despite the conditions.  

Hopefully I get to post some more pics after this week. Cant wait for our opener.

Good to see your going down the night before Sol- it will give Nitro and I some company. Sol- you seem to do well taking new people out and gettin' em on fish from the past. Best luck to everyone- hope we all get monsters and have a blast! Should be busy on the lil lake but hopefully some fish get caught by everyone.

The last one is a whopper!

5 muskies on Kincaid today all on the same color and same bait, not a normal color. Noon-6:30pm. One dinkerdillyinker at 31.5" that didn't get pictured at the end of the day. Fish up to 45".

It will get snagged up just like hi-fins, bigfork reef diggers and depthraiders that all have the similar lip. LMAO! 

Starting to get a couple baits ready for the tourney- getting excited. Larry- ever see a lip like this before? lol. Stole the design from those Hi-Fins.. Anyone else getting excited other than me?

I will try to promote it today on FB and just show this link to people- afraid to get tickets if I cant sling em and dont wanna disappoint. Just added the link to my Baker Baits page, we'll see if we can drum up some business that way. Had to include a pic of the original "meat man".

Larry- if you want I can do my best to promote this on FB. Up to you. Not the best salesman- give away too much stuff. Would the winner have to pick up or can this be mailed to them?

Congrats! Thought you were gonna take it slow this year but guess not. Best luck.

I was just joking about the die off to keep everyone away, lol. Almost worked huh? Good job picking up clients for the opener Larry- I was amazed it wasnt booked a long time ago, good time of year. Best wishes to everyone who gets out!

No fish in Waneta- heard the weed killer made em all go belly up from a local. Better let me check it out first for ya, lol.

Nice to see people networking!

Looks like old spawning scars imho.

Be happy to throw down a couple for the raffle table.

Nice job passing on your good idea.

Whats up Devo- things been good? 

I dont know much but based off last weekend, imo trolling those suspended schools of bait out in open water seems to be the deal until the water heats up more driving those tigers shallow. Best luck if ya get out today Larry. That buoy line seemed to be a mid/late June thing when I used to mess with em

.

 Mikey got to touch the coolest fish there are, heard their skin feels like rubber- is that true? Do they tattoo sturgeon? Neat.

Great time and Bobby boy/Kevin earned their win. The area where the tourney was won was 2.5-3 degrees colder than the north end so that throws the warmer water theory out the door for early season tigers. Only got a 26" tiger myself trolling a firetiger bait I made but we had a couple more hits and Brad got one chucking a Suick. Beautiful lake that coughed up some fish for us as a group and cant knock the lake at all. Good time seeing everyone and would post pics but dumb a$$ here is having issues. Congrats to those who smoked my punk a$$ last Saturday, really looking forward to summer now. BTY- Larry, you wouldnt have had any issues imo launching as their was a big old Trophy that didnt seem to have any issues. IMO Otisco is a cooler lake than Conesus and wouldnt mind going back sometime. Thanks for organizing this event, good times.

Nice! Joe got me thinking about that "bucket list" when I talked to him a week ago so yesterday I booked a trip with Chad Cain out on Kincaid for my ma. He is someone that I have gotten to know b/c of this lure game and think he'll get my ma out for a good time and hopefully to have a pic like you guys just posted. I was born in the same town as Chad Cain so we hit it off right away. She hasnt ever gotten anything bigger than a bluegill so I am as excited for her as I was you guys on this trip. 

You have a story to tell your lil girl about when she was in Ma's tummy with your trip with Joe to KY. Drive safely back home and congrats on the fish, sorry it was a couple inches short but now you know the story of my love life, lol. Drive safe back home, you guys have people that need ya home in one piece. Good job checking something off your bucket list. 

Just "shared" this on facebook trying to drum up some more interest. Thanks Larry, I look forward to fishing it and I am calling it a late bday present to myself. Going through my 1/8oz Johnson Bettle Spins, sharpening hooks and adding double 10's to them- getting ready, better watch out boys! Will also try to throw down for the raffle table like normal.
